Google Pixel Watch 5 — specifications, price, and release date

Google Pixel Watch 5 will debut on August 12, 2026, at the Made by Google event, along with the Pixel 11 series. The watch returns in two sizes: 41 and 45 mm. The biggest change inside is 3 GB of RAM instead of 2 GB and Wear OS 7 with Gemini. Prices start at 419 EUR, which is approximately 1,800 PLN.

If you’ve been putting off buying an Android smartwatch for a few weeks, you’ve done well. The fifth generation of the Google watch is practically outlined in leaks: we know the battery capacities, charging times, the complete set of sensors, and the prices of all four variants.

Below you will find the full specification, a price table in PLN, a comparison with the Pixel Watch 4, and the answer to the question every owner of the predecessor asks: will your bands and glasses fit.

Note: This article was created before the official premiere and is based on leaks and materials that have leaked from sales channels. We will confirm the data on August 12.

Three items from this table deserve a comment. Dual-frequency GPS is responsible for the accuracy of the track in the city, between tall buildings. UWB (ultra-wideband) is precise short-range location technology used, among other things, for unlocking the car.

The third is satellite SOS, which is a call for help via satellite outside the range of the cellular network. In Poland, the feature will work if Google makes it available in our market.

A thickness of 12.3 mm is exactly the same as in its predecessor. The case has not grown by a millimeter, which has very specific consequences for accessories; we will return to this below.

Our advice: Before you order the watch, check accessories for Google Pixel Watch at homescreen.pl. It’s worth having the strap and glass from day one, not after the first scratch.

What changes compared to Pixel Watch 4?

Let’s be clear: Pixel Watch 5 is an iteration, not a generational leap. The same processor, the same case, the same screen. The memory changes, the battery increases by a few percent, and a new version of the system appears.

Parameter	Pixel Watch 5	Pixel Watch 4
Processor	Snapdragon W5 Gen 2	Snapdragon W5 Gen 2
RAM	3 GB	2 GB
Memory	64 GB	32 GB
Battery 41 mm	332 mAh	325 mAh
Battery 45 mm	465 mAh	455 mAh
Battery life	up to 30 h / 40 h	up to 30 h / 40 h
Case dimensions	12.3 mm	12.3 mm
System	Wear OS 7.0	Wear OS 6 (upgrade to 7.0)
Starting price	399 USD	349 USD

The most important item in this table is RAM. Two gigabytes in Watch 4 were a bottleneck for Gemini features. The assistant operates locally on the watch, and the memory ran out faster than it should have. Three gigabytes should eliminate stutters when switching apps.

The rest of the changes are cosmetic. The battery is 2% larger, with the same declared battery life. The doubled data memory, 64 GB instead of 32 GB, will mainly be useful for offline music. Wear OS 7 will also come to the fourth generation in a regular update.

However, the price increases by 50 USD. Google does not explain why; it is most likely due to the doubled memory and rising component costs.

Battery and charging — 30 or 40 hours

Choosing a size is primarily a choice of endurance. The difference reaches ten hours, which in practice means one full night of sleep tracking.

Size	Battery	Standard mode	Power saving mode
41 mm	332 mAh	up to 30 h	up to 48 h
45 mm	465 mAh	up to 40 h	up to 72 h

Charging times are the same for both versions:

50% in about 15 minutes
80% in 25–30 minutes
100% in 45–60 minutes

That’s a good result for a watch. A quarter of an hour in the shower is enough to last until the evening. And indeed, in short top-ups, the Pixel Watch is most conveniently used for sleep tracking.

The 45 mm version with power saving mode lasts up to 72 hours. You can take it for a weekend in the mountains without a charger.

Health and sensors — what the new Google watch measures

The set of sensors is complete and matches what the predecessor offers:

Optical heart rate sensor with notifications for irregular heart rhythm
SpO2 — blood oxygen saturation
ECG — single-lead electrocardiogram
cEDA — continuous measurement of skin conductance, stress response indicator
Skin temperature sensor — night measurement
Altimeter, barometer, and compass

The greatest value of this set is cEDA. The sensor detects microscopic changes in sweating that the body generates under stress before you consciously notice them. In practice, the watch can ask, “Did something just upset you?” at the moment when something really upset you.

The whole thing is tied together by Wear OS 7 with Gemini. The assistant works on the watch, so questions like “How much did I sleep this week compared to last week?” don’t require reaching for the phone.

Note: The ECG and heart rate measurement features are wellness tools, not medical devices in the sense of diagnostics. An incorrect reading is a signal to visit a doctor, not a diagnosis.

Price of Google Pixel Watch 5 and release date in Poland

Prices have leaked for all four combinations of size and connectivity:

Variant	Price EUR	Estimated price PLN
41 mm, Bluetooth/Wi-Fi	419 EUR	approx. 1,800 PLN
45 mm, Bluetooth/Wi-Fi	449 EUR	approx. 1,930 PLN
41 mm, LTE	519 EUR	approx. 2,230 PLN
45 mm, LTE	549 EUR	approx. 2,360 PLN

Prices in PLN are approximate conversions; the Polish Google price list can differ from a simple euro conversion.

The release calendar looks like this:

August 12, 2026 — presentation at the Made by Google event and start of pre-sales
August 20, 2026 — first deliveries to customers

On the same day, the entire Google Pixel 11 series debuts. If you plan to replace your phone and watch at the same time, it’s worth waiting for the pre-sale bundles; Google traditionally adds a strap or a discount to them.

The surcharge for LTE is 100 EUR, which is about 430 PLN. It only makes sense if you realistically leave your phone at home: while running, cycling, or swimming. Otherwise, the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi version does exactly the same thing.

Do accessories from Pixel Watch 4 fit Pixel Watch 5?

Most likely yes, and this is the most important practical information in this article. The case retains the dimensions of 41 and 45 mm and a thickness of 12.3 mm, just like its predecessor.

Straps

In Google watches, the compatibility of the strap is determined by the size of the case, not the generation. The attachment has not changed since the first Pixel Watch.

Straps 41 mm are interchangeable between Pixel Watch 1, 2, 3, 4, and most likely 5
Straps 45 mm fit Pixel Watch 3, 4, and most likely 5 (the 45 mm size only appeared in the third generation)

This is even evident in the product names in the store: Bizon Strap Watch Silicone 41 mm for 26 PLN is described as compatible with four generations at once. You can find the full selection in the watch straps category.

Cases, glasses, and films

Here, caution is greater because cases and glasses replicate the shape of the glass and the arrangement of the button and crown with an accuracy of tenths of a millimeter. However, since the dimensions of the case do not change, accessories from Watch 4 should fit without reservations.

Accessory	Brand	Sizes	Price
Case+Glass Watch (case with glass)	Bizon	41 and 45 mm	25 PLN
Glass Watch Edge Hybrid (hybrid glass)	Bizon	41 and 45 mm	19 PLN
Watch Film HydroFlex (film, 3 pieces)	Bizon	41 and 45 mm	25 PLN
Hydrofilm (hydrogel film)	GrizzGlass	41 and 45 mm	11.99 PLN
Strap Watch Silicone (silicone strap)	Bizon	41 and 45 mm	26 PLN
Strap Watch Aura (steel strap)	Bizon	41 and 45 mm	69 PLN

Our choice: Bizon Case+Glass Watch for 25 PLN: a case and glass in one, so the edge of the case and the convex screen are protected together. If you prefer to keep the original look of the watch, take just the Bizon Glass Watch Edge Hybrid glass for 19 PLN.

It’s worth knowing the limitation of the offer: accessories for the Pixel Watch in our store come from two manufacturers, Bizon Mobile and GrizzGlass. This is a narrower selection than with the iPhone or Galaxy; Spigen and ESR do not make cases for Google watches. However, the prices are low, and a complete protection set costs 40 PLN.

The full range awaiting compatibility confirmation can be found in the Google Pixel Watch 4 category.

Is it worth waiting for the fifth generation?

The answer depends on what you have on your wrist.

You have a Pixel Watch 4 — there’s no point. For a starting price that is 50 USD higher, you get an extra gigabyte of RAM and twice the music storage. Everything else remains unchanged.

You have a Pixel Watch 2 or 3 — yes, it’s worth it. You skip two generations of sensors, get a screen that is twice as bright compared to the second generation, and a realistically longer battery life.

Buying your first Android watch — wait until August 12, even if you ultimately buy the fourth one. The release of the fifth is the moment when the Pixel Watch 4 noticeably drops in price, and accessories for it are already available immediately.

Summary

The Google Pixel Watch 5 is a calm, predictable update without any fireworks, and that is not a criticism. The key facts:

Release on August 12, 2026, deliveries starting from August 20, along with the Pixel 11 series
Two sizes: 41 mm (332 mAh, up to 30 h) and 45 mm (465 mAh, up to 40 h)
3 GB RAM instead of 2 GB and 64 GB of storage, a real improvement in Gemini’s smoothness
The same Snapdragon W5 Gen 2 and the same 12.3 mm case as in the Pixel Watch 4
Prices starting from 419 EUR (approx. 1,800 PLN) to 549 EUR (approx. 2,360 PLN) for the 45 mm with LTE
Accessories from the Pixel Watch 4 should fit, as the case size determines compatibility, not the generation

FAQ — frequently asked questions

When is the release of Google Pixel Watch 5?

The release will take place on August 12, 2026, at the Made by Google event, along with the Pixel 11 series. Pre-orders start on the same day, and the first deliveries to customers are scheduled for August 20, 2026.

How much does the Google Pixel Watch 5 cost?

Prices start at 419 EUR (approx. 1,800 PLN) for the 41 mm version with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. The 45 mm variant costs 449 EUR, and the LTE versions are priced at 519 and 549 EUR, respectively. The Polish pricing for Google may differ from the euro conversion.

What are the differences between the Pixel Watch 5 and Pixel Watch 4?

Three things: 3 GB of RAM instead of 2 GB, 64 GB of storage instead of 32 GB, and Wear OS 7 instead of 6. The processor, case, display, and declared battery life remain unchanged. The battery increases by about 2%.

Do the bands from Pixel Watch 4 fit the Pixel Watch 5?

Most likely yes. In Google watches, compatibility is determined by the case size, not the generation. The 41 mm bands have been interchangeable since the first Pixel Watch, and the 45 mm bands since the third. The fifth retains both sizes.

How long does the battery last in the Pixel Watch 5?

The 41 mm version lasts up to 30 hours, while the 45 mm version lasts up to 40 hours in standard mode. In battery-saving mode, it lasts 48 and 72 hours, respectively. Charging to 50% takes about 15 minutes.

Is it worth buying the Pixel Watch 4 instead of waiting for the 5?

If price is important to you, then yes. The differences come down to memory and system version, and the Pixel Watch 4 will drop in price after the successor is released. You can buy accessories for the fourth model immediately, including cases and glass protectors starting from 19 PLN, and the Google Pixel Watch 5 has the same case, so you won’t lose anything.

What is the best glass to choose for the Galaxy Z Fold 8?

The best glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is the Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD (79 PLN), a 9H+ tempered glass with an application frame that sticks it perfectly straight. For budget-conscious users, the best choice is the Bizon Glass Clear (25 PLN), and among films, the original is the Samsung Anti-reflecting Film (129 PLN). It’s also worth adding a camera cover, e.g., the Spigen Optik Pro (75 PLN).

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 debuted at the official launch and immediately became one of the most expensive smartphones on the market. This is a device that practically begs for solid screen protection. A scratch on the outer screen or a cracked lens costs many times more to repair than a decent piece of glass.

In this guide, we have clearly gathered the best tempered glasses, films, and camera covers for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 available at homescreen.pl, categorized by brands, prices, and real photos. We also explain the most important rule of protecting the foldable: which screen can have glass applied and which one never should.

Note: this guide pertains to the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8. If you have the larger variant, choose glass from the dedicated category for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, as the screen dimensions differ.

Ranking of glasses for the Galaxy Z Fold 8

Glass / film	Brand	Type	Price
Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD	Spigen	Tempered glass, 2 pcs.	79 zł
Cover Display Easy Slide	Ringke	Tempered glass, 2 pcs.	55 zł
Anti-reflecting Film	Samsung	Anti-reflective film, 2 pcs.	129 zł
Glass Clear	Bizon	Tempered glass	25 zł
Glass Edge (black frame)	Bizon	Glass with frame	25 zł

All models can be found in one accessories category for Galaxy Z Fold 8, next to cases and camera covers. Check availability, as the best 2-pack sets sell out quickly.

Which screen on Z Fold 8 to protect with glass and which with film

Galaxy Z Fold 8 has two screens and that changes the rules of the game. Before you buy a protection, remember one thing:

External screen (cover): this is a rigid, flat panel. Here you apply classic tempered glass. This is the screen that gets the most scratches because you use it with the phone closed.
Internal screen (foldable): never apply tempered glass on it. The rigid panel will crack at the fold and may damage the display. Protect the internal screen only with a flexible film.

Samsung applies a factory film to the internal screen during production. When it wears out, replace it with a dedicated film for foldables, not glass. The tempered glasses in this ranking are intended for the external screen.

What else to pay attention to when choosing glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8:

Hardness 9H: a standard that protects against keys and sand in your pocket. All glasses in the ranking have it (Samsung film is a separate category of protection).
Application frame (EZ Fit / Easy Slide): allows you to stick the glass perfectly straight, without bubbles. It saves nerves with the narrow screen of the foldable.
Oleophobic coating: reduces fingerprints and makes cleaning easier.
2-pack set: two glasses for the price of one is a backup in case of a failed application or breakage.
Color frame: the version with a black frame masks the edges of the screen and better conceals minor mismatches.

For a quick comparison of the most important models:

Glass / film	Hardness	Applicator	2-pack	Price
Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD	9H+ (AluminaCore)	✅	✅	79 zł
Ringke Cover Display Easy Slide	9H	✅	✅	55 zł
Samsung Anti-reflecting Film	Film (anti-reflective)	❌	✅	129 zł
Bizon Glass Clear	9H	❌	❌	25 zł
Bizon Glass Edge	9H	❌	❌	25 zł

Spigen: the best tempered glass for Z Fold 8

Spigen is the number one brand when it comes to screen protection. For the Galaxy Z Fold 8, it has prepared glass with a proprietary application system that solves the biggest problem of foldables, which is uneven adhesion.

1. Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD (79 zł)

Tempered glass Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD for Galaxy Z Fold 8

Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD Z Fold 8 with application frame

Our choice. Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD is glass with AluminaCore technology, a hardness of 9H+, and a crystal-clear surface with no touch delays. The biggest advantage is the EZ Fit Pro frame: you place it on the external screen, lower the glass, and it is perfectly centered, without air bubbles.

The set includes two glasses and two applicators, so the second attempt costs nothing. For 79 PLN, you get the most refined product in the lineup, an unequivocal leader for those who value secure installation and the highest quality surface.

Tip: The tempered glass protects the external screen, but the phone tends to slip from your hand. Pair it with a case for Galaxy Z Fold 8. Full protection costs less than a single repair.

Ringke: solid glass with Easy Slide system

Ringke is a proven accessory brand that focuses on easy installation at a reasonable price. Its offering is a natural competitor to Spigen for those on a budget.

2. Ringke Cover Display Easy Slide (55 zł)

Ringke Cover Display Easy Slide tempered glass for Galaxy Z Fold 8

Ringke Cover Display Easy Slide Z Fold 8 with installation frame

Ringke Cover Display Easy Slide is a 9H tempered glass with a three-layer structure (oleophobic coating, glass, AB layer) with an Easy Slide installation frame. The manufacturer has smoothed the edges to ensure the glass blends nicely with the external screen.

The package includes two pieces and installation accessories. At 55 zł, it’s a great compromise: almost as easy to apply as Spigen’s, but at a lower price. A good choice if you don’t want to pay extra for a top brand.

Samsung: original anti-reflective film

If you care about originality and prefer film over glass, choose Samsung’s accessory. It’s the only option that focuses on reducing reflections rather than maximum hardness.

3. Samsung Anti-reflecting Film (129 zł)

Samsung Anti-reflecting Film for Galaxy Z Fold 8

Samsung Anti-reflecting Film Z Fold 8 anti-reflective two-pack

Samsung Anti-reflecting Film is an original film that protects the screen from scratches and significantly reduces glare. It performs well in sunlight and under artificial light, where the glossy glass surface can strain the eyes.

It is the most expensive option in the comparison (129 PLN for a two-pack), but as a film, it is thinner and more flexible than glass. Choose it if you care about a matte, anti-reflective finish and an original Samsung product.

Bizon: the cheapest screen protection

Bizon is a budget brand that offers decent protection for a fraction of the price of top glasses. For the Z Fold 8, it has two versions: classic transparent and with a black frame.

4. Bizon Glass Clear (25 PLN)

Bizon Glass Clear tempered glass for Galaxy Z Fold 8 transparent

Bizon Glass Clear Z Fold 8 9H glass with oleophobic coating

Bizon Glass Clear is the cheapest tempered glass in the comparison. It has a hardness of 9H, a thickness of 0.33 mm, and an oleophobic coating, and the package includes a complete installation set: cloths, positioning stickers, and a dust absorber.

For 25 PLN, you get solid, transparent protection for the external screen. This is proof that good glass doesn’t have to cost a fortune, especially when you care about a discreet, fully transparent finish.

5. Bizon Glass Edge, black frame (25 PLN)

Bizon Glass Edge tempered glass for Galaxy Z Fold 8 black frame

Bizon Glass Edge Z Fold 8 with black 4D frame

Bizon Glass Edge has the same hardness of 9H and thickness of 0.33 mm, but with a black frame and 4D rounded edges. The frame conceals the edges of the screen and makes the glass blend better with the black phone case.

Choose it instead of the Clear version if you prefer the edge of the glass to be invisible, and minor misalignments during installation to be less noticeable. The price is the same: 25 PLN.

Camera covers for Galaxy Z Fold 8

The protruding camera module is the second element that gets damaged most often when you lay the phone lens down. A separate camera cover protects the lens glass from scratches and cracks, and costs a fraction of the repair price for the module.

Camera Cover	Brand	Type	Price
Optik Pro Glas.tR EZ Fit AC	Spigen	Glass 9H+, 2 pcs.	75 PLN
Camera Frame	Ringke	Glass in frame, 2 pcs.	49 PLN
Glass Lens	Bizon	Lens glass, 2 pcs.	25 PLN

Spigen Optik Pro Glas.tR EZ Fit AC (75 PLN)

Spigen Optik Pro Glas.tR EZ Fit camera cover for Galaxy Z Fold 8

Spigen Optik Pro EZ Fit camera cover Z Fold 8 black two-pack

Spigen Optik Pro Glas.tR EZ Fit AC is the best camera cover in the ranking. The glass with AluminaCore technology has a hardness of 9H+, and the maximum light transmission ensures that photos retain their original quality. The application frame, like with screen glass, guarantees precise mounting on the lenses.

Ringke Camera Frame (49 PLN)

Camera protection Ringke Camera Frame for Galaxy Z Fold 8 black

Ringke Camera Frame Z Fold 8 lens protection in aluminum frame

Ringke Camera Frame combines 9H glass with an aluminum frame that additionally protects the edges of the module. The black print at the edges reduces reflections, and the design is low enough to work with most cases. A reasonable balance between price and quality.

Bizon Glass Lens (25 zł)

Glass for camera Bizon Glass Lens for Galaxy Z Fold 8 two-pack

Bizon Glass Lens Z Fold 8 lens protection with mounting kit

Bizon Glass Lens is the cheapest camera protection (25 zł for a two-pack). Precisely cut glasses with an oleophobic coating protect the lenses from scratches, maintain color temperature, and reduce glare when taking photos with a flash. The best price-to-quality ratio.

Which glass to choose for Galaxy Z Fold 8?

The choice depends on what you value the most:

Best overall: Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD (79 PLN) for secure installation with a frame and the highest quality glass.
Cheapest, transparent: Bizon Glass Clear (25 PLN).
With a black frame: Bizon Glass Edge (25 PLN), if you prefer hidden edges.
Convenient installation at a lower price: Ringke Cover Display Easy Slide (55 PLN).
Original and less glare: Samsung Anti-reflecting Film (129 PLN).
Camera cover: Spigen Optik Pro (75 PLN) at the top, Bizon Glass Lens (25 PLN) for the budget-conscious.

Conclusion: For most users, the best glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is the Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD. The application frame eliminates uneven adhesion, and the two-pack provides a spare. If budget is a concern, the Bizon Glass Clear for 25 PLN protects the outer screen just as effectively. Just remember to leave the inner screen under the film, never under glass.

Don’t forget about the case and charging

Glass and camera protection are essential, but full protection for the foldable device comes from a case that secures the hinge and corners. In the accessories category for the Galaxy Z Fold 8, you will find cases, glass, and camera protectors all in one place, and in the Galaxy Z Fold section, accessories for other Samsung foldables.

For longer outings, a wireless charger or a power bank will also come in handy. The foldable with a large screen quickly drains the battery with intensive use.

You can order everything with free delivery from 100 PLN and shipping via InPost. Home Screen has a 99.8% positive rating on Allegro and 4.9/5 on Google, so you can shop confidently and quickly.

FAQ: frequently asked questions

What is the best glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8?

The best overall is Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD (79 PLN), a 9H+ tempered glass with an application frame that adheres it perfectly straight. For those on a budget, we recommend Bizon Glass Clear (25 PLN).

Can tempered glass be applied to the inner screen of the Z Fold 8?

No. Protect the inner screen (foldable) only with a flexible film. Rigid tempered glass will break at the fold and may damage the panel. Only apply glass to the flat outer screen.

Which is better: tempered glass or film?

For the external screen, tempered glass is better because it is harder and more pleasant to the touch. A film (e.g., Samsung Anti-reflecting) works well where you care about reducing glare or on the internal screen where glass cannot be used.

What is better: hybrid glass or tempered glass?

For the external screen of the Z Fold 8, tempered glass is better because it is harder (9H) and more resistant to scratches. Hybrid glass can be thinner and harder to break, but it offers less protection against scratches. Do not apply either of them to the internal screen; only soft film is allowed there.

How much does glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 cost?

Prices start at 25 PLN for Bizon Glass Clear and go up to 129 PLN for the original Samsung Anti-reflecting Film. Spigen glass with an application frame costs 79 PLN, while Ringke costs 55 PLN. Camera covers range from 25 to 75 PLN.

Is it worth buying a camera cover for the Z Fold 8?

Yes. The protruding camera module often gets damaged when you lay the phone down with the lenses facing down. A cover costing 25 to 75 PLN protects the lenses from scratches and breakage, while repairing the module costs many times more.

Does glass with a black frame fit the Z Fold 8?

Yes. The version with a black frame, like Bizon Glass Edge, masks the edges of the screen and better matches the black casing. The protection is the same as in the transparent version; it only differs in the appearance of the edges.

Bizon Glass Edge has the same hardness of 9H and thickness of 0.33 mm, but with a black frame and rounded 4D edges. The frame masks the edges of the screen and makes the glass blend better with the black casing of the phone.

Choose it instead of the Clear version if you prefer the edge of the glass to be invisible, and minor misalignments during installation to be less noticeable. The price is the same: 25 PLN.

Camera covers for Galaxy Z Fold 8

The protruding camera module is the second element that gets damaged most often when you lay the phone with the lenses down. A separate camera cover protects the lens glasses from scratches and cracks, and it costs a fraction of the repair price for the module.

Camera Cover	Brand	Type	Price
Optik Pro Glas.tR EZ Fit AC	Spigen	Glass 9H+, 2 pcs.	75 PLN
Camera Frame	Ringke	Framed glass, 2 pcs.	49 PLN
Glass Lens	Bizon	Lens glass, 2 pcs.	25 PLN

Spigen Optik Pro Glas.tR EZ Fit AC

Ringke Camera Frame

Bizon Glass Lens

Bizon Glass Lens is the cheapest camera protection (25 PLN for a two-pack). Precisely cut glasses with an oleophobic coating protect the lenses from scratches, maintain color temperature, and reduce glare in flash photography. The best price-to-quality ratio.

Which glass to choose for the Galaxy Z Fold 8?

The choice depends on what you value the most:

Best overall: Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD (79 PLN) for secure installation with a frame and the highest quality surface.
Cheapest, transparent: Bizon Glass Clear (25 PLN).
With a black frame: Bizon Glass Edge (25 PLN), if you prefer hidden edges.
Convenient installation at a lower price: Ringke Cover Display Easy Slide (55 PLN).
Original and less glare: Samsung Anti-reflecting Film (129 PLN).
Camera protection: Spigen Optik Pro (75 PLN) at the top, Bizon Glass Lens (25 PLN) for the budget-conscious.

Conclusion: For most users, the best glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is the Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD. The application frame eliminates uneven adhesion, and the two-pack provides a spare. If budget matters, the Bizon Glass Clear for 25 PLN protects the external screen just as effectively. Just remember to keep the internal screen under a film, never under glass.

Don’t forget about the case and charging

Glass and camera protection are essential, but full protection for the foldable will only come from a case that secures the hinge and corners. In the accessories category for the Galaxy Z Fold 8, you will find cases, glass, and camera protection all in one place, and in the Galaxy Z Fold section, accessories for other Samsung foldables.

For longer outings, a wireless charger or a power bank will also come in handy. The foldable with a large screen quickly drains the battery with intensive use.

You can order everything with free delivery from 100 PLN and shipping via InPost. Home Screen has a 99.8% positive rating on Allegro and 4.9/5 on Google, so you can shop confidently and quickly.

FAQ: frequently asked questions

What is the best glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8?

The best overall is the Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Pro HD (79 PLN), a 9H+ tempered glass with an application frame that adheres it perfectly straight. For those on a budget, we recommend the Bizon Glass Clear (25 PLN).

Can tempered glass be applied to the inner screen of the Z Fold 8?

No. Protect the inner screen (foldable) only with a flexible film. Rigid tempered glass will break at the fold and may damage the panel. Apply glass only to the flat outer screen.

What is better: tempered glass or film?

For the external screen, tempered glass is better because it is harder and more pleasant to the touch. A film (e.g., Samsung Anti-reflecting) works well where you want to reduce glare or on the internal screen where glass cannot be used.

Which is better: hybrid glass or tempered glass?

How much does glass for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 cost?

Prices start at 25 PLN for Bizon Glass Clear and go up to 129 PLN for the original Samsung Anti-reflecting Film. Spigen glass with an application frame costs 79 PLN, and Ringke costs 55 PLN. Camera covers range from 25 to 75 PLN.

Is it worth buying a camera cover for the Z Fold 8?

Does glass with a black frame fit the Z Fold 8?

Yes. The version with a black frame, like Bizon Glass Edge, masks the edges of the screen and blends better with the black casing. The protection is the same as in the transparent version; it only differs in the appearance of the edges.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra vs Z Fold 8: which one to choose?

In the battle of Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra vs Z Fold 8, both phones share the same Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, but the Ultra has larger screens (8″ and 6.5″), a 200 MP camera with a telephoto lens, and a slimmer body. The Z Fold 8, on the other hand, is cheaper, lighter, and more compact.

In short: choose the Ultra for the camera and the largest screen, and the Z Fold 8 for the lower price (from 8749 PLN compared to 9599 PLN) and lighter weight. The rest of the specifications are almost identical.

Samsung showcased both foldables at the Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22, 2026 (you can find the full official specification comparison on Samsung’s website). Pre-orders started the same day, and sales begin in August. This is the first time the Z Fold series gets an Ultra variant, so the question of “which one to choose” is particularly relevant this year.

In this comparison of Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra vs Z Fold 8, we break down both phones into their components: screens, performance, cameras, battery, design, software, and price. At the end, you will find a clear recommendation on who each one is for.

Key differences at a glance

Screens and format: 8 inches vs wider 7.6 inches

This is the first thing you will feel in your hand. The Z Fold 8 Ultra has a larger main screen of 8 inches and an external 6.5 inches, while the Z Fold 8 opts for a wider, more square 7.6-inch panel (4:3) and a smaller front of 5.5 inches.

The external screen is the one you use most often in a foldable phone. Here, the Ultra definitely wins: the 6.5-inch front functions like a regular smartphone, without the need to constantly unfold the phone. The smaller 5.5-inch panel of the Z Fold 8 is convenient for one-handed use, but can feel cramped for longer typing sessions.

When unfolded, both displays are LTPO AMOLED 2X with a refresh rate of 1-120 Hz and a peak brightness of 3000 nits. They differ in format: the Z Fold 8 targets a 4:3 ratio that is comfortable for reading and multitasking, while the Ultra simply offers more workspace.

Conclusion: If you mainly use the phone in its folded form, the larger front of the Ultra makes a real difference in everyday comfort. The wider screen of the Z Fold 8 is also great for content and documents.

Format and ergonomics: classic Ultra vs wider Z Fold 8

Besides the diagonal itself, the shape matters. The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra maintains the classic, tall, and narrow format of foldables known from previous generations. The Z Fold 8 is a novelty, as it leans towards a wider, more square screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio.

In practice, this means a different way of using it. The tall Ultra in its folded form resembles an ordinary, slim smartphone and fits comfortably in the hand and pocket. The wider Z Fold 8 is shorter, making it easier to handle with one hand, but it takes up more width.

When unfolded, the 4:3 format of the Z Fold 8 is great for reading and working with documents, as it is closer to a sheet of paper. The larger, 8-inch Ultra, on the other hand, provides the most space for splitting the screen between apps.

Tip: If you often write and read, test both formats in person. The difference in screen proportions is noticeable from the first moment, and it is often this, rather than dry specifications, that determines your choice.

Performance: the same processor, the same power

There is no contest here. Both phones are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy with the same RAM (12 or 16 GB) and the same storage options (256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB in UFS 4.x standard).

In practice, this means identical system fluidity, gaming speed, and multitasking capabilities. Several windows side by side on a large screen, demanding games, heavy graphic applications. Both foldables will handle this just as well.

The only theoretical difference is heat management under prolonged load, as the thinner Ultra design has less space for cooling. However, in everyday use, you won’t feel this in any noticeable way.

Cameras: 200 MP with telephoto vs dual 50 MP setup

This is the biggest difference between the phones and the most common reason for the extra cost of the Ultra. The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra has a main 200 MP camera and a dedicated 3x telephoto lens, which you won’t find in the Z Fold 8.

The Z Fold 8 Ultra leads with a setup consisting of a main 200 MP sensor (f/1.7, OIS), a 50 MP ultra-wide (f/1.9, 120°), and a 10 MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. This is a fully-fledged, versatile system that can handle landscapes, portraits, and close-ups.

You will appreciate the 3x telephoto lens the most at concerts, while sightseeing, or with portraits that have a natural perspective. This is where the digital zoom of the Z Fold 8 starts to lose details, while the Ultra’s optics maintain sharpness.

The Z Fold 8 has a more modest, yet still good setup: a main 50 MP sensor (f/1.8, OIS) with 2x zoom achieved from the sensor and an ultra-wide 50 MP. It lacks a dedicated telephoto lens, so distant zooms rely on digital zoom.

The selfie cameras are identical: both phones have two 10 MP cameras, one on the external screen and one inside.

Z Fold 8 Ultra, 200 MP, 3x telephoto lens, more detail and better optical zoom.
Z Fold 8, solid main 50 MP and ultra-wide, but without a telephoto lens.

Conclusion: If you take a lot of photos, especially with zoom, the Ultra is clearly the better choice. For occasional photos and social media, the Z Fold 8 is more than sufficient.

Battery and Charging: Slight Advantage for Ultra

The batteries are similar. The Z Fold 8 Ultra has a 5000 mAh battery, while the Z Fold 8 has a slightly smaller one, 4800 mAh. Both charge wired at 45 W and support wireless charging.

The 200 mAh difference is practically cosmetic. The Ultra theoretically has a bit more reserve, but it also powers a larger, 8-inch screen, so the actual battery life of both phones will be very similar.

It’s worth remembering that foldables with large screens tend to consume energy quickly during intensive multitasking. Both models would benefit from a wireless charger on the desk and a power bank in the backpack for a longer day out.

Design and Dimensions: Slimmer Ultra vs Lighter Z Fold 8

An interesting paradox. The Z Fold 8 Ultra is thinner (8.9 mm when folded), but heavier (214 g), while the Z Fold 8 is thicker (9.7 mm) but lighter (201 g).

The Ultra is a classic, tall format foldable in a premium version, emphasizing a slim profile. The Z Fold 8 leans towards a wider, shorter, and more compact design that is comfortably operated with one hand when folded.

Both phones use a frame and hinge made with Flex Titanium technology and have an IP48 resistance certification (protection against objects larger than 1 mm and immersion in water, but this is not full dustproofing). This is the same high standard of workmanship in both models.

Regardless of your choice, a foldable phone costing 9,000 to 12,000 PLN should be protected from day one. Dedicated cases and glass protectors can be found in the accessories categories for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Galaxy Z Fold 8. At Home Screen, you can order them with free delivery for orders over 100 PLN, and the store has a 99.8% positive rating on Allegro and 4.9/5 on Google.

Software and updates: no differences

In terms of software, the phones are identical. Both run on Android 17 with the One UI 9 overlay and will receive 7 years of system updates.

This is one of the longest support periods on the market, so regardless of your choice, the phone will stay with you for years. All Galaxy AI features, multitasking modes, and foldable screen capabilities are the same in both models.

Price and variants: how much is the upgrade to Ultra

Prices in Poland are as follows:

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra:
– 12/256 GB, 9599 PLN
– 12/512 GB, 10499 PLN
– 16/1 TB, 12199 PLN

Galaxy Z Fold 8:
– 12/256 GB, 8749 PLN
– 12/512 GB, 9599 PLN
– 16/1 TB, 11299 PLN

The surcharge for the basic Ultra is about 850 PLN compared to the base Z Fold 8. Interesting fact: the Ultra in the 12/256 variant costs exactly the same as the Z Fold 8 in the 12/512 version, so when comparing variants, it’s worth looking at the specific memory configuration.

Which Samsung foldable to choose?

The decision comes down to a few simple questions:

Do you want the best camera and the largest screen? Choose the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, especially for the 200 MP sensor and 3x telephoto lens.
Is a lower price and lighter weight important to you? Go for the Z Fold 8, you’ll save money and get a lighter phone.
Do you mainly use your phone when it’s folded? The larger 6.5-inch front of the Ultra is more convenient for everyday use.
Do you value a comfortable, wide screen for reading? The 4:3 format of the Z Fold 8 works great.
Do you occasionally take photos and count every penny? The Z Fold 8 offers 90% of the Ultra experience at a lower price.

Conclusion: The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is the choice for those who want the absolute maximum, mainly the 200 MP camera and larger screens. The Z Fold 8 is a more reasonably priced foldable for those who only need a good camera and prefer a lighter, more compact design.

The Best Cases for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra

The best case for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is the Spigen Slim Armor Pro MagSafe (225 PLN), a rugged, dual-layer protection with MagSafe magnets. For those on a budget, the best option is the Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid (from 29 PLN), while among transparent cases, the Ringke Fusion (59 PLN) wins. Prefer the original? Go for the Samsung Carbon Standing with a built-in stand.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra debuted at the Galaxy Unpacked conference on July 22, 2026, and immediately became one of the most expensive foldables on the market. This is a device that practically begs for a solid case. The foldable design, large internal screen, and titanium frame are impressive, but repairs after a fall can cost more than a good smartphone.

In this guide, we have gathered clearly the best cases for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra available at homescreen.pl, categorized by brands, variants to choose from, prices, and photos. You will find both rugged cases and slim, transparent, and original Samsung accessories here.

What to pay attention to when choosing a case for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra

The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is a foldable design, so choosing a case follows slightly different rules than in a classic smartphone. Before you buy, pay attention to a few things:

Hinge protection: this is the most exposed element of the foldable. The best cases have a separate flap or reinforcement around the hinge.
Thickness and weight: The Z Fold 8 Ultra is thin when unfolded, and a rugged case can add a lot of bulk. If you value slimness, choose a cover like Airskin or Air Fit.
MagSafe / Qi2 magnets: the magnetic ring allows the use of magnetic chargers and mounts. The phone itself does not have such a ring. It is only provided by the case.
Material: TPU is flexible and cheap, polycarbonate is rigid and scratch-resistant, while hybrid constructions combine both. Transparent cases without a protective coating may yellow over time.
Kickstand: useful for a large screen to watch content without holding the phone in hand.

For a quick comparison of the most important models:

Case	Material	Protection	MagSafe / Qi2	Kickstand	Price
Spigen Slim Armor Pro	TPU + PC (armored)	High (MIL-STD)	✅	❌	225 PLN
Spigen Slim Armor Pro S	TPU + PC (armored)	High (MIL-STD)	✅	✅	245 PLN
Samsung Carbon Standing	Polycarbonate	Medium	❌	✅	429 PLN
Ringke Fusion	PC + TPU	Medium	❌	❌	59 PLN
Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid	TPU hybrid	Basic	✅	❌	39 PLN

Spigen: the best protection and the largest selection

Spigen is the number one brand when it comes to cases for foldables. For the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, it has prepared a full range, from armored cases to ultra-thin covers, all with MagSafe magnets.

1. Spigen Slim Armor Pro MagSafe (225 zł)

Our choice. Spigen Slim Armor Pro MagSafe is a dual-layer construction (flexible TPU plus hard polycarbonate) with a built-in magnetic ring (Qi2, compatible with MagSafe accessories). Reinforced corners absorb impacts, and the case has a military-grade MIL-STD-810G resistance certification. The Sliding hinge system adapts to every bend of the flexible screen, so the case does not interfere with the smooth folding of the phone.

This is the best compromise between protection and appearance. The case is slim for an armored case and does not interfere with folding the phone.

Other Spigen cases to choose from

Spigen Slim Armor Pro S MagSafe (245 zł), the same armored protection, but with a built-in kickstand. Perfect for watching movies without holding the phone.
Spigen Airskin MagSafe (119 zł), ultra-thin case for those who don’t want to add bulk. Minimalist, with magnets.
Spigen Air Fit Pro MagSafe (149 zł), lightweight, matte case with MagSafe. A good balance between protection and slimness.

Tip: Since all Spigen cases have MagSafe magnets, it’s worth pairing them with a wireless charger with magnetic attachment. The phone holds securely and charges without searching for the coil.

Samsung: original case with kickstand

If you care about an original case perfectly fitted to the foldable design, choose a Samsung case. They are more expensive, but fit perfectly and maintain full hinge functionality.

2. Samsung Carbon Standing (429 zł)

Samsung Carbon Standing is an original case with a carbon finish and built-in stand. It provides good protection for the back and an elegant finish, and thanks to the standing feature, you can comfortably set your phone for video calls or watching content.

This is the most expensive option in the comparison, but it’s hard to find a case better suited for the Z Fold 8 Ultra.

Other original Samsung cases

Samsung Carbon Magnet (429 zł), carbon pattern plus magnets, available in black, navy blue, and red colors.

Samsung Silicone Magnet (349 zł), pleasant to the touch silicone case with magnets.
Samsung Clear Magnet (239 zł), transparent, showcases the phone’s color, with magnetic mounting.
Samsung Clear (199 zł), the cheapest original case, classic transparent, without magnets.

Ringke: the best transparent case

3. Ringke Fusion (59 zł)

Ringke Fusion is the best transparent case for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra at a reasonable price. It has a rigid polycarbonate back and flexible frames, and a special coating reduces yellowing over time.

Ringke Fusion case for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra transparent

Ringke Fusion Z Fold 8 Ultra back transparent

If you want to show off the titanium color of your phone while also protecting the back from scratches, this is a perfect choice. For 59 zł, you get protection and a discreet look.

Tech-Protect: best budget

4. Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid MagSafe (39 zł)

Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid MagSafe is the cheapest case with magnets in the ranking. The hybrid, transparent design protects the back and corners, and the built-in MagSafe ring allows the use of magnetic accessories.

For 39 zł, it’s hard to find a better price-to-quality ratio. This is proof that good protection doesn’t have to cost a fortune.

Other Tech-Protect cases

Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid (29 zł), the same design without magnets, even cheaper.
Tech-Protect Magmat MagSafe (39 zł), matte, black case with MagSafe for those who prefer a subdued look over transparent.

Which case to choose for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra?

The choice depends on what you value the most:

Maximum protection: Spigen Slim Armor Pro MagSafe (225 zł) or the version with a stand Pro S (245 zł).
Cheapest: Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid (29 zł) or the version with MagSafe (39 zł).
Transparent: Ringke Fusion (59 zł) or Samsung Clear (199 zł) if you want the original.
Original Samsung with a stand: Carbon Standing (429 zł).
Ultrathin: Spigen Airskin MagSafe (119 zł).

Conclusion: For most users, the best case for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is the Spigen Slim Armor Pro MagSafe. It combines rugged protection with magnets and a slim profile. If budget is a priority, the Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid offers surprisingly much for just under 40 zł.

Don’t forget about screen and camera protection

A case is essential, but the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra has two screens and a protruding camera module that are also worth protecting. In the accessories category for the Z Fold 8 Ultra, you will find tempered glass for the external screen of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and lens protectors (including Bizon and 3mk) priced from 20 zł.

For longer outings, a power bank will also come in handy. The foldable with a large screen can quickly drain the battery with intensive use.

All cases can be ordered with free shipping from 100 PLN and shipping via InPost. Home Screen has a 99.8% positive rating on Allegro and 4.9/5 on Google, so you can buy confidently and quickly.

FAQ: frequently asked questions

What is the best case for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra?

The best overall is the Spigen Slim Armor Pro MagSafe (225 PLN), rugged, with MagSafe magnets and hinge protection. For budget-conscious buyers, we recommend the Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid (from 29 PLN).

Do MagSafe cases fit the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra?

Yes. Most cases in this selection (Spigen, Tech-Protect Flexair, Samsung Magnet) have a built-in magnetic ring compatible with MagSafe accessories and magnetic chargers.

How much does a case for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra cost?

Prices start from 29 PLN for the budget Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid and go up to 429 PLN for the original Samsung Carbon case. Rugged Spigen cases cost between 225–245 PLN, while thinner Spigen models with MagSafe start at 119 PLN.

Is it worth buying the original Samsung case?

Original Samsung cases are the best fitting and most elegant, but also the most expensive. If you’re looking for cheaper, equally good protection, Spigen and Tech-Protect cases offer a better price-to-quality ratio.

What transparent case for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra?

The best transparent case is the Ringke Fusion (59 PLN) with a yellowing-resistant coating. A cheaper alternative is the Tech-Protect Flexair Hybrid, and the original is the Samsung Clear.

Does the case protect the hinge and the screen of the foldable?

A good case, like the Spigen Slim Armor Pro, has a hinge system tailored for folding and solidly protects the back and corners. The inner screen itself is not covered by the case, so it’s worth adding glass or a film for the outer screen and a camera cover.

Galaxy Unpacked 2026 — what will Samsung showcase?

Galaxy Unpacked 2026 will take place on July 22, 2026, in London. Samsung will showcase three foldables — Galaxy Z Fold 8, the new Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Z Flip 8 — as well as two watches: Galaxy Watch 9 and Watch Ultra 2. Additionally, probably the first smart glasses, Galaxy Glasses. The conference slogan is “A New Shape Unfolds,” which heralds the biggest change in the shape of foldable phones in years.

The summer Samsung Unpacked 2026 is traditionally the premiere of foldables and smartwatches from the Korean manufacturer. However, this year is different than usual: the manufacturer is organizing the event in London for the first time and is splitting the Fold line into two models for the first time. Below we have gathered everything that is known today — the date, time, full list of premieres, specifications from leaks, and expected prices in Europe and Poland. Some of the data is unofficial leaks, so treat every number as highly probable, not confirmed.

When and where will Galaxy Unpacked 2026 take place?

The Galaxy Unpacked conference will take place on July 22, 2026, at 3:00 PM Polish time (2:00 PM BST in London, 9:00 AM Eastern Time USA). Samsung is organizing the summer Unpacked in London for the first time, moving away from the previous pattern with Korea and New York.

You can watch the live broadcast for free on Samsung’s official YouTube channel and on the website news.samsung.com. The invitation with the theme “A New Shape Unfolds” features a ticket that unfolds into a box with the Galaxy AI logo — a clear hint at the new, broader foldable format and a strong emphasis on artificial intelligence.

Announcement on the largest 3D LED screen in Europe

The conference was preceded by a strong Polish accent. Since July 8, 2026, the invitation to Galaxy Unpacked has been displayed in the center of Warsaw on the Warsaw STAGE — the largest 3D LED screen in Europe (owned by Screen Network). The screen creates a three-dimensional depth effect, where graphic elements seem to extend beyond its surface.

The campaign was prepared by Samsung Poland in collaboration with the agency VML (creative concept) and the studio Platige (3D realization). The conference itself will take place in London — on July 22, with a broadcast at 3:00 PM Polish time. This is the official announcement from the manufacturer, not a leak.

What will Samsung show at Unpacked 2026? Full list of premieres

This year’s Unpacked is exceptionally rich. Instead of one foldable flagship, Samsung is expected to showcase three phones and two watches at once. Here’s a summary of the most important premieres along with the expected starting price and key change.

Device	Starting Price (leak)	What’s New
Galaxy Z Fold 8	from ~€1,999 (~PLN 8,600)	new, wider screen format
Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra	from ~€2,199 (~PLN 9,500)	top specification, 200 MP camera
Galaxy Z Flip 8	from ~€1,299 (~PLN 5,600)	faster 45 W charging
Galaxy Watch 9	from ~€409 (~PLN 1,755)	end of Classic version, larger battery
Galaxy Watch Ultra 2	from ~€749 (~PLN 3,210)	3 nm chip, 800 mAh battery, 5G
Galaxy Glasses	no data	smart glasses with Android XR

Prices in PLN are estimates based on European leaks and the euro exchange rate — the official Polish price list will be released on the day of the premiere. Below we break down each device into its components.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Fold 8 Ultra — new shape of the foldable

The biggest novelty this year is the division of the Fold line into two variants. This is the first such situation in the history of the series.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 is set to receive a completely new, wider, and shorter format — closer to the proportions of a passport than the previously tall foldable. This is what the slogan “A New Shape Unfolds” refers to. When unfolded, it resembles an almost square tablet, more comfortable for reading and multitasking. It will be powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, with 12 GB of RAM and storage up to 1 TB.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, on the other hand, is a classic, tall flagship in its most powerful version. It is set to take on the role of an uncompromising foldable: according to leaks, it will feature a main camera of 200 MP, a telephoto lens with optical zoom, and top-tier performance. Both models will utilize the new Flex Titanium display technology, in which titanium elements are embedded directly into the panel’s structure — this is expected to significantly reduce the visibility of the screen’s crease.

Parameter (leak)	Galaxy Z Fold 8	Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra
Format	wider, “passport”	classic, tall
Internal display	~7.6″ AMOLED, 120 Hz	~8″ AMOLED, 120 Hz
Processor	Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5	Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
RAM / storage	12 GB / up to 1 TB	12–16 GB / up to 1 TB
Main camera	50 MP	200 MP
Telephoto lens	❌ none	✅ with optical zoom
Display	Flex Titanium	Flex Titanium
Starting price	from ~€1,999	from ~€2,199

More details about both foldables, their displays, and cameras are described in a separate article: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 — specifications, price, and release. Cases and glass for both models can be found in the categories Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra.

Tip: If you care about optical zoom and the best camera, aim for the Z Fold 8 Ultra. The standard Z Fold 8 is a suggestion for those who want a more comfortable, wider screen for multitasking and media — not necessarily at the expense of photography.

Galaxy Z Flip 8 — the same form, new interior

The Galaxy Z Flip 8 is the most conservative launch of the day. From the outside, it is expected to be almost indistinguishable from its predecessor: 6.9-inch main display 120 Hz and 4.1-inch external display remain unchanged. The changes are hidden inside.

The most important change is the new processor. In Europe, the Flip 8 will be powered by a 10-core Exynos 2600 (about 28% faster in processor tasks than its predecessor), while in the USA and some markets — Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. Additionally, there is finally 45 W charging instead of the previous 25 W, with a 4,300 mAh battery. The cameras remain the same: 50 MP main with stabilization, 12 MP ultra-wide, and 10 MP for selfies.

Parameter (leak)	Galaxy Z Flip 8
Main display	6.9″ AMOLED, 120 Hz
External display	4.1″ AMOLED
Processor	Exynos 2600 (Europe) / Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
RAM / storage	12 GB / 256–512 GB
Cameras	50 MP + 12 MP + 10 MP (selfie)
Battery	4,300 mAh
Charging	45 W (up from 25 W)
Starting price	from ~€1,299 (~PLN 5,600)

Some leaks suggest that this may be the last classic “flip” from Samsung — the manufacturer is considering ending the Flip line. If true, the eighth generation will gain the status of a model that closes a certain chapter. Look for flip accessories in the Galaxy Z Flip 8 category.

Galaxy Watch 9 — end of the Classic version

The Galaxy Watch 9 is expected to be a calm evolution, but with one loud change: Samsung is set to abandon the Classic version with a physical, rotating bezel. This has distinguished the more expensive variant for years. The watch retains two case sizes — 40 and 44 mm — and the battery is expected to grow by about 23%, which will translate to noticeably longer battery life.

The processor remains a point of contention. Some sources mention the proven Exynos W1000, while others refer to the new Snapdragon Wear Elite. The characteristic rotating ring is also disappearing, so fans of the classic look will have to reach for older models or the Ultra line.

Parameter (leak)	Galaxy Watch 9
Sizes	40 mm and 44 mm
Screen	AMOLED, 1.34″ / 1.47″
Battery	+23% compared to Watch 8
Classic version	❌ not available in this generation
Processor	Exynos W1000 or Snapdragon Wear Elite
Starting price	from ~409 € (~1,755 PLN)

Everything we know about the watch has been gathered in the article Galaxy Watch 9 — what we know before the premiere. You can find straps for the new model in the watch straps category, and glasses and cases in the Galaxy Watch accessories section.

Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 — 3 nm, 800 mAh battery, and 5G

Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is Samsung’s most powerful watch and this year’s favorite among sports fans. The second generation focuses on what was lacking in the first — primarily battery life. Three changes make the biggest difference.

New 3 nm processor — the Snapdragon Wear Elite chip is expected to increase performance and reduce power consumption, especially in AI functions.
800 mAh battery — an increase of about 35% compared to 590 mAh in the first Ultra. This means a realistically longer usage time on a single charge.
5G — Watch Ultra 2 is set to be Samsung’s first smartwatch with a 5G modem, although in Europe, including Poland, we will receive 4G/LTE variants.

The rest of the construction is checked: a 47 mm titanium case, a bright AMOLED screen, and a programmable Quick Button. This is a watch for runners, divers, and those who need equipment resistant to extreme conditions. You can find the full specification in the text Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 — specification, price, and release date, and accessories in the category Galaxy Watch Ultra.

Galaxy Glasses and Galaxy AI — what else will Samsung show?

In addition to foldables and watches, Samsung is expected to present Galaxy Glasses — its first smart glasses. They are set to operate under Android XR with the Gemini assistant and aim to compete with Meta’s glasses and the upcoming Apple hardware. This is still information from leaks, so the premiere at Unpacked is not certain.

The theme tying the entire conference together is Galaxy AI. Artificial intelligence is set to be the main selling point of the new devices — from real-time translations, through camera features, to health assistants in watches. “A New Shape Unfolds” is not only a new shape for the Fold but also a promise of stronger AI integration throughout the ecosystem.

Galaxy Unpacked 2026 — prices in Europe and Poland

The most talked-about topic in the leaks is the prices, as almost the entire lineup is expected to increase in cost. The table below collects the expected starting prices in euros along with an approximate conversion to Polish zlotys.

Device	Price in euros (leak)	Approximately in Poland
Galaxy Z Fold 8 (256 GB)	from 1,999 €	~8,600 zł
Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra (256 GB)	from 2,199 €	~9,500 zł
Galaxy Z Flip 8 (256 GB)	from 1,299 €	~5,600 zł
Galaxy Watch 9 (40 mm, BT)	from 409 €	~1,755 zł
Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 (LTE)	from 749 €	~3,210 zł

It is worth paying attention to the nuances. The standard Z Fold 8 starts at the same level as its predecessor, while the Z Fold 8 Ultra costs about 200 euros more than the base model. The Z Flip 8 also increases by approximately 100 euros compared to its predecessor, despite having nearly identical specifications. The watches are also expected to be more expensive by several dozen euros compared to their predecessors. In Poland, a price increase of around 100 euros will approximately translate to 400–450 zł.

Note: All the above amounts are leaks, not the official price list. Final prices in zlotys and details of the Polish pre-sale will be provided by Samsung only on July 22. Pre-sales usually start on the day of the conference, with retail sales beginning 1–2 weeks later.

Accessories to start — what to prepare before the premiere

New devices will hit stores along with a wave of accessories: cases, tempered glass, and straps. If you plan to purchase one of the models, it’s worth considering screen protection and a case right away. Dedicated categories for each of the new models are already ready in the store — you can find them in the release table above and in the sections for each device.

Motorola Edge 70 Max – specifications, price, and release date

Motorola Edge 70 Max is a new flagship with Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, a 6.82″ 144 Hz display, and a 7100 mAh battery. In Poland, it is expected to cost 2999 PLN for the 8/256 GB version and will go on sale in the summer of 2026. The premiere took place on July 15, 2026. It is the most powerful model in the Edge 70 series, with 90 W charging, wireless Qi2 25 W, and IP68/IP69 resistance.

Motorola is going all out. The Edge 70 Max combines top-tier components with a price that not long ago seemed unrealistic for such specifications. In one phone, we get Qualcomm’s flagship processor, a gigantic battery, a display with a peak brightness of 7000 nits, and magnets compliant with the Qi2 standard. Below you will find everything that is known after the premiere, as well as the specific date and price for the Polish market.

Specifications of Motorola Edge 70 Max – key parameters

144 Hz Display and Peak Brightness of 7000 Nits

The heart of the visual experience is a 6.82-inch Extreme AMOLED LTPO panel with a QHD+ resolution (1440 x 3168 pixels). LTPO technology allows for smooth refresh rate changes up to 144 Hz, and when displaying a static image, it can drop lower to save battery.

The brightness is truly impressive. 7000 nits at peak is one of the highest figures on the market. The screen remains readable even in full sunlight. Additionally, the 10-bit color depth ensures smooth tonal transitions without visible banding.

These are specifications that just a year ago were reserved for phones at twice the price. Motorola proves that a top display does not have to mean a flagship price tag.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 – Flagship Performance

The performance is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, Qualcomm’s latest flagship chip. It’s the same processor that drives this year’s top-tier phones, so you can be assured of its performance quality.

Globally, there are versions available with 8 or 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256 GB of UFS 4.1 storage. This setup means lightning-fast app launches, smooth multitasking, and enough power for several years of use, even in demanding games.

In this price range, a flagship Snapdragon is a rarity. Most competitors for 3000 PLN offer mid-range or upper mid-range chips, not Qualcomm’s top chip.

7100 mAh battery, 90 W charging, and Qi2 25 W

The biggest asset of the Edge 70 Max is its energy. The 7100 mAh cell is made using modern silicon-carbon technology, allowing it to fit into a casing just 8.29 mm thick. In practice, this means comfortable two days of use with moderate usage.

Wired charging with 90 W TurboPower will charge such a large battery to 100% in about 51 minutes, and you can replenish half in just 21 minutes. Even more interesting is the wireless charging at 25 W with Qi2.2 standard, with built-in magnets compatible with the MagSafe ecosystem. This is still a rarity in Android phones and a real advantage in daily use. The phone also supports reverse wired charging at 5 W.

Qi2 with magnets opens the way to convenient accessories: magnetic wireless chargers, car mounts, and wallets. If you want to fully utilize the 90 W charging, a strong wall charger with USB PD (Power Delivery) and PPS support will come in handy.

Tip: With a 7100 mAh battery, you don’t need a huge energy reserve for longer trips. A compact 10,000 mAh power bank, preferably with USB PD reverse charging, is more than enough to quickly recharge your phone.

50 MP Camera with Sony LYTIA-710 Sensor

The main eye of the Edge 70 Max is the 50 MP with Sony LYTIA-710 sensor with a diagonal of 1/1.56 inches and optical image stabilization (OIS). The large sensor collects more light, resulting in better photos in low light and less noise.

The set is complemented by an ultra-wide 8 MP camera (f/2.2, 119° field of view) and a front 32 MP for selfies and video calls. This is a classic, practical configuration, without a telephoto lens, but with a strong main sensor that performs very well in everyday photography. You can record video in 4K resolution at 60 fps with HDR10+.

Motorola has been collaborating with Pantone for years on color calibration, which usually results in natural, true-to-life color reproduction in photos.

Connectivity, sound, and security

The Edge 70 Max features a complete set of modern connectivity options: 5G, Wi-Fi 7 in tri-band mode, Bluetooth 6.0, and NFC for contactless payments. Data transfer and charging are handled by a USB-C port, and support for two nano-SIM cards and two eSIM profiles (with a maximum of two active at the same time) provides significant flexibility while traveling.

Sound is taken care of by stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos and a Hi-Res Audio certification. The classic 3.5 mm headphone jack is missing. You can unlock the phone with an optical fingerprint reader under the display, and the additional MIL-STD-810H standard confirms resistance to shocks and harsh conditions.

Design, colors, and IP68/IP69 resistance

The casing combines Corning Gorilla Glass 7i on the front and back with an aluminum frame. Despite the 7100 mAh battery, the phone is only 8.29 mm thick, although it weighs a noticeable 221 g. This is thanks to the silicon-carbon cell, which packs more energy into a smaller space.

The Edge 70 Max has received a dual certification of IP68 and IP69. This means it is resistant to both immersion in water and a jet of hot water under pressure. This is the highest practical level of protection on the smartphone market.

The phone will be available in three colors from the Pantone palette: Dark Shadow (dark graphite), Ice Melt (light, cool shade), and Aqua Grey (gray with a hint of blue).

Motorola Edge 70 Max vs Edge 70 Pro – what are the differences?

The Edge 70 Max is positioned above the already available model Edge 70 Pro. The biggest differences are the processor, battery, and screen.

Parameter	Edge 70 Max	Edge 70 Pro
Processor	Snapdragon 8 Gen 5	Snapdragon 8s Gen 4
Screen	6.82″ 144 Hz, 7000 nits	6.7″ 120 Hz
Battery	7100 mAh	5000 mAh
Charging	90 W + Qi2 25 W	68 W + 15 W
Main camera	50 MP Sony LYTIA-710	50 MP
Resistance	IP68 / IP69	IP68 / IP69
Starting price	2999 PLN	approx. 2600 PLN

In short: the Edge 70 Max is a clear step up in terms of power and battery life. You pay about 400 PLN more, and in return, you get a flagship processor, nearly half a larger battery, a brighter 144 Hz screen, and Qi2 charging. If you care about maximum performance and independence from the socket, the extra cost makes sense.

Price and release of Motorola Edge 70 Max in Poland

The official launch of the Edge 70 Max took place on July 15, 2026. The phone will hit Polish stores in summer 2026, the exact sales date has not yet been confirmed.

The price in Poland is 2999 PLN for the 8/256 GB variant, so far the only one with a confirmed price for our market. This is a very aggressive pricing for a flagship processor, a 7100 mAh battery, and a 7000 nits screen. Motorola clearly targets customers looking for maximum specifications for reasonable money. Official information about availability is published by Motorola Poland.

The phone runs on Android 16 with the Hello UX overlay. The manufacturer promises 3 major system updates (to Android 19) and 5 years of security patches. This is solid support that will keep the device up to date for years.

Accessories for Motorola Edge 70 Max

Since the model is just debuting, dedicated cases and tempered glass will appear alongside the sales launch in Poland. Accessories for the entire family can be found regularly in the Motorola Edge 70 category, and the full brand offer in the Motorola section.

It is worth keeping an eye on these categories. It’s best to buy screen and body protection right after purchasing the phone, before the first scratch appears.

Who is the Motorola Edge 70 Max for?

The Edge 70 Max is suitable for people who:

Want flagship performance (Snapdragon 8 Gen 5) without paying a flagship price.
Need maximum battery life, the 7100 mAh battery lasts two days without charging.
Value a bright, smooth 144 Hz display that is readable in sunlight.
Want the convenience of Qi2 wireless charging with MagSafe magnets.

If you mainly care about a lower price and don’t need a top processor, a cheaper alternative is the Edge 70 Pro.

Motorola Razr 70 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7

Motorola Razr 70 Ultra is the more powerful device: larger and brighter screen (7.0″, 165 Hz, 5000 nits), more efficient Snapdragon 8 Elite, 5000 mAh battery, and 68 W charging. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 offers a lighter design (188 g), a more mature One UI 8, and up to 7 years of updates. Choose Razr if performance, battery, and charging speed matter to you. Opt for Flip 7 if you value the Samsung ecosystem and the longest support on the market.

Both flip phones target the same customer: you want a compact phone that fits in a small pocket but unfolds to provide a full-sized screen. The differences lie in the details — and these can sway your choice in everyday use. Below, we break down both models into their components — screens, performance, cameras, battery, software, and price — and suggest which one to choose for yourself.

Motorola Razr 70 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 — comparison table

Parameter	Motorola Razr 70 Ultra	Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7
Internal display	7.0″ LTPO AMOLED, 165 Hz	6.9″ LTPO AMOLED, 120 Hz

Updates	shorter support	7 years OS + security
Price PL (from)	~5000–5999 zł (16/512)	~3600–4300 zł (256/512)

The table already shows the balance of power: Razr wins in hardware parameters (display, processor, battery, charging), while Flip 7 defends itself with weight, software, and support duration. Now for the details.

Screens — Razr focuses on brightness and fluidity

The biggest difference is the screens. The Motorola Razr 70 Ultra has a 7.0-inch internal AMOLED with a refresh rate of 165 Hz and a peak brightness of 5000 nits. These are some of the best parameters among foldables, also compared to classic flagships. The 4.0-inch external screen also refreshes at 165 Hz and reaches 3000 nits, so you can handle almost everything from it without unfolding the phone.

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 received a 6.9-inch internal panel at 120 Hz and a new, “edge-to-edge” external screen of 4.1 inches. These are very good displays, but on paper they fall short of Motorola in brightness and fluidity. In practice, not everyone will notice the difference between 120 vs 165 Hz, however, the brightness of 5000 vs 2600 nits is noticeable in full sunlight.

Conclusion: For watching content and using in the sun, the Razr 70 Ultra is better. The Flip 7 makes up for it with a well-crafted external screen and apps that work on the cover.

Regardless of the choice, it is worth protecting the flexible screen of the foldable from day one with a dedicated film — rigid tempered glass does not work well on a bending panel.

External Screen — Phone Operation Without Unfolding

In flip phones, everyday convenience is determined by the external screen, as you respond to messages, check notifications, and take photos with the main camera from it. The Motorola Razr 70 Ultra features a 4.0-inch cover with a refresh rate of 165 Hz and a brightness of 3000 nits, on which you can run practically any Android application.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 has opted for a new 4.1-inch panel, more tightly surrounding the camera module, with refined widgets and quick access to Galaxy AI. Samsung has been developing this interface for several generations, so it is more organized, although it by default limits the launching of full applications. Motorola offers more freedom in this regard, while Samsung provides more consistency.

Performance — Snapdragon 8 Elite vs. Exynos 2500

The Motorola Razr 70 Ultra uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite, Qualcomm’s top chip built on a 3 nm process. It is the most powerful processor to hit a foldable flip phone, with plenty of power for gaming and years of use.

Galaxy Z Flip 7 is powered by the proprietary Samsung Exynos 2500, also at 3 nm. It is fast and energy-efficient, but in performance tests and under load, it usually falls behind the Snapdragon 8 Elite, especially in gaming and maintaining long-term performance. For everyday tasks, social media, and photography, both chips are more than sufficient.

Both phones have 12 GB of RAM (the Razr also comes in a 16 GB variant) and 512 GB of storage, with no card slot. The Flip 7 offers a cheaper 256 GB variant for those who find that capacity sufficient.

Cameras — Motorola adds a 50 MP ultra-wide

On paper, the cameras look similar: both phones have a main 50 MP sensor with optical stabilization. The difference lies in the second lens. The Razr 70 Ultra has a 50 MP ultra-wide camera, while the Flip 7 opts for 12 MP. This translates to more details on the Motorola side in wide-angle and macro photos.

Additionally, there is the front camera: 50 MP in the Razr versus 10 MP in the Flip 7. In practice, however, selfies from both flip phones are most often taken with the main camera, using the external screen as a viewfinder, where software matters more than the number of megapixels.

Samsung has had an advantage in image processing and color consistency between lenses for years, and One UI offers a rich Pro mode and AI tools. Motorola makes up for it with hardware and collaboration with Pantone for color reproduction. It’s a close battle: more “raw” hardware is provided by the Razr, while more mature camera software comes from Samsung.

Tip: The protruding camera module on flip phones can easily get scratched when closing. A separate lens protector costs a few zlotys and saves blurry photos.

Battery and charging — a clear advantage for Razr

Here Motorola clearly wins. The Razr 70 Ultra has a 5000 mAh battery, 68 W wired charging, and 30 W wireless charging. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 has 4300 mAh, 25 W wired, and 15 W wireless.

The difference is real: the larger battery in Motorola means longer usage time, and over twice as fast wired charging (68 vs 25 W) significantly shortens the full charging time — the Razr replenishes its battery much faster than the Flip 7. For many people, this is a decisive argument — foldables inherently have less space for batteries, so every additional mAh and watt of power counts.

Samsung explains the lower specifications by emphasizing the slimness and longevity of the battery, but in the everyday “from morning to evening” scenario, the Razr offers more peace of mind. Both flip phones can be charged with a universal GaN charger with USB Power Delivery, and it’s worth choosing a model with at least 30 W of power.

Design, weight, and durability

Both phones have an IP48 certification, meaning they are resistant to dust and immersion up to 1.5 m for 30 minutes, but without full dust protection like classic flagship models with IP68. This is still a significant advancement for foldables.

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 is lighter (188 g) and slimmer when folded, which is noticeable in the pocket. The Motorola weighs 199 g but tempts with materials: Alcantara finish and natural wood veneer in the Cocoa version. It’s one of the most distinctive designs on the market.

The hinge in both models is refined and allows the screen to be held at any angle (the “flex” mode). Samsung has been perfecting the mechanism for years and minimizing the crease in the middle of the screen; Motorola compensates with a flat fold without a gap.

Conclusion: Flip 7 wins in terms of agility and weight, Razr 70 Ultra — in character and materials. It’s an aesthetic choice as much as a technical one.

Software and updates — Samsung’s advantage

The biggest advantage of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is support. Samsung promises 7 years of system and security updates and the One UI 8 overlay with an extensive Galaxy AI package. This means a phone that stays current for most of the decade and a realistically higher resale value.

Motorola opts for a clean, lightweight Hello UI interface with Moto AI features and convenient external screen handling. Drawbacks? Shorter update support than Samsung — if you plan to keep the phone for 5–6 years, that’s a significant downside.

The ecosystem also favors Samsung: integration with Galaxy Watch, Buds, tablets, and DeX services is more complete. Motorola offers a simpler, but very intuitive environment and fewer unnecessary applications (so-called bloatware).

Price — what you get for your money

The Motorola Razr 70 Ultra is sold in Poland in the configuration 16/512 GB at a retail price of 5999 PLN, although during promotions and from operators, it goes down to around 5000 PLN. There is also a global variant of 12/512 GB.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 has been on the market since July 2025, so its prices have clearly dropped. The 12/256 GB variant can be purchased today for around 3600–4300 PLN, and the 12/512 GB for about 4100–4500 PLN (the retail price for 256 GB is 4299 PLN).

This significantly changes the equation: at a similar price point, the Flip 7 is currently 1000–2000 PLN cheaper than the Razr 70 Ultra. You buy the Samsung for a lower price, longer support, and a lighter design, while the Motorola offers the strongest hardware (screen, processor, battery, charging) — but at an additional cost. It’s worth checking prices regularly, as foldables are often subject to promotions and trade-in offers.

Which foldable to choose: Motorola Razr 70 Ultra or Galaxy Z Flip 7?

There is no single winner — it all depends on your priorities.

Choose Motorola Razr 70 Ultra if: you want the most powerful flip phone, the brightest and smoothest display, the largest battery, and the fastest charging, and you like the design with Alcantara or wood.
Choose Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 if: you want a lower price (today ~3600–4300 PLN), value lightness and slimness, need 7 years of updates, and are in the Samsung ecosystem (watch, headphones, mature One UI, and Galaxy AI).
Tie if: you mainly take photos with the main camera and use the external screen — both models will perform excellently, and you will make your decision based on design and price.

Regardless of your choice, the flip phone is a delicate construction with a flexible screen and hinge — a case and screen protector are not a luxury here, but a necessity. Accessories for both models can be found in the categories Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Motorola Razr at homescreen.pl.

Summary

Motorola Razr 70 Ultra and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 are currently the two most interesting flip phones on the market, but with different characters. The main conclusions:

Hardware: Razr 70 Ultra wins with its display (7.0″, 165 Hz, 5000 nits), processor (Snapdragon 8 Elite), battery (5000 mAh), and charging (68 W).
Longevity: Galaxy Z Flip 7 offers 7 years of updates, a lighter design (188 g), and a mature Samsung ecosystem.
Cameras: balanced — Razr adds an ultra-wide 50 MP, Samsung has better photography software.
Price: Galaxy Z Flip 7 is clearly cheaper today (~3600–4300 PLN) and has longer support; Razr 70 Ultra is the most powerful device, but at a premium (~5000–5999 PLN).

When choosing either model, think about protection right away — cases and films for Galaxy Z Flip 7 and accessories for Motorola Razr are readily available at homescreen.pl. Free shipping on orders over 100 PLN, InPost, and shipping within 24 hours.

FAQ — frequently asked questions about Razr 70 Ultra and Z Flip 7

Which phone is better: Razr 70 Ultra or Z Flip 7?

It depends on your priorities. Razr 70 Ultra is better in terms of hardware — it has a brighter and faster screen, a more powerful processor, a larger battery, and faster charging. Z Flip 7 wins in terms of lightness, 7 years of updates, and the Samsung ecosystem.

Which has a better screen?

Motorola Razr 70 Ultra. Its internal screen is 7.0 inches, 165 Hz, and peaks at 5000 nits brightness, while Galaxy Z Flip 7 offers 6.9 inches and 120 Hz. Samsung’s external screen, however, is very well optimized software-wise.

Which one gets updates longer?

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 — with a guarantee of 7 years of system and security updates. Motorola offers shorter support, which is worth considering if you plan to use the phone for many years.

Are both phones waterproof?

Both have an IP48 rating, are resistant to immersion in water up to 1.5 m for 30 minutes, but do not have full dust protection like flagships with IP68. Protect them from sand and particles that may get into the hinge.

Which flip phone has a better battery?

Razr 70 Ultra — has a 5000 mAh battery and 68 W charging (wired) and 30 W (wireless). Galaxy Z Flip 7 has 4300 mAh and 25 W and 15 W, so it charges noticeably slower.

What accessories are worth buying for a foldable phone?

First of all, a case that protects the hinge and frame, as well as a film for the flexible inner screen (not tempered glass). Screen protection for the outer display and camera lenses will also be useful. You can find a full selection in the accessories categories for Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Motorola Razr at homescreen.pl.

The best accessories for the Oppo Find X9 Ultra

The best accessories for the Oppo Find X9 Ultra are the Bizon Case Łupka (35 PLN) for back and camera protection, the Bizon Glass Edge tempered glass (25 PLN) with a 9H coating for the screen, and the Ugreen Nexode Pro 100 W GaN charger (219.90 PLN) for quickly replenishing the 7,050 mAh battery. Additionally, there is protection for the protruding Hasselblad lenses and a fast USB-C cable. Below is the complete ranking with prices, specifications, and specific advice on what to choose for this flagship.

The Oppo Find X9 Ultra costs around 6,000 PLN in Europe, has a massive camera module with 10x optical zoom, and weighs 235 g. Such a phone begs for proper protection before the first drop on tiles wipes out several hundred PLN from its value. In this guide, we show tested cases, glasses, and chargers available immediately at homescreen.pl, categorized by what is truly worth its price.

Why it’s worth protecting the Oppo Find X9 Ultra from day one

The Find X9 Ultra is high-end equipment: a main sensor of 200 MP, a periscope with 10x optical zoom, a 6.82″ screen with a peak brightness of 3,600 nits, and NanoCrystal glass (full data in GSMArena specification). Replacing a cracked display on such a flagship costs around 1,000–1,500 PLN. In comparison, a complete case and glass set costs between 50–70 PLN.

The biggest risk is the large, protruding camera module with the Hasselblad logo. It is the first to touch the surface when you place the phone screen up. Therefore, in this model, protecting the lenses makes even more sense than in an average smartphone.

Tip: The starter kit for the Find X9 Ultra consists of three items: a case, screen protector, and camera glass. You will pay less than 80 PLN for everything, and avoid the most expensive repairs. Check the full offer in the category accessories for Oppo Find X9 Ultra →

Best Cases for Oppo Find X9 Ultra

The cases for the Find X9 Ultra at homescreen.pl come from the brand Bizon. This manufacturer specializes in accessories for fresh releases and was the first to prepare a fit for this model. You won’t find Spigen or UAG here yet, but Bizon makes up for it with a variety of designs: from rigid polycarbonate, through soft silicone, to a complete set with films.

Case	Type	Key Feature	Price
Bizon Case Łupka	hard polycarbonate	raised edges, rims around the camera	35 PLN
Bizon Soft Case	silicone + PC + microfiber	wireless charging, soft interior	45 PLN
Bizon Case Clear Pack	flexible + 2× film	case and screen protection in one	55 PLN

Bizon Case Łupka — our everyday choice

Bison Case Łupka for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, black, back

Bison Case Łupka for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, view of the camera cutout

Our choice. Bison Case Łupka is a rigid polycarbonate case about 1 mm thick, which keeps the phone slim. The raised edges around the screen and camera lift the glass and lenses off the surface, while the covered buttons maintain a clear click.

It is available in black, blue, and green. It is a good option for those who like thin cases and do not want to hide the phone’s design under a thick armor. For 35 PLN, you get solid protection against scratches and everyday drops from a small height.

Bison Soft Case — soft protection and wireless charging

Silicone Bison Soft Case for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, back

Silicone Bison Soft Case for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, side view

Bizon Soft Case combines three materials: flexible silicone on the outside, polycarbonate reinforcement, and soft microfiber on the inside that does not scratch the back of the phone. Silicone effectively absorbs shocks during a fall and provides a secure grip in hand.

The case does not block wireless charging, so you can place your phone on a Qi charger without removing the cover. It comes in shades of purple and green. For 45 PLN, it is a choice for those who prefer a soft, pleasant-to-touch material instead of hard plastic.

Bizon Case Clear Pack — case and glass in one set

Bizon Case Clear Pack for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, transparent case and films

Bizon Case Clear Pack for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, contents of the set

If you want to secure protection with one purchase, Bizon Case Clear Pack includes a transparent, flexible case and two hydrogel screen protectors, along with mounting accessories. For 55 PLN, you get a set that will protect the back and display right after unpacking.

This is the most cost-effective option for someone who doesn’t want to separately choose a case and glass. Hydrogel films fit well on the curved edges of the screen, although they are less resistant to impacts than tempered glass.

Want to protect your phone right away? All matching cases can be found in the accessories category for this model, with free shipping on orders over 100 zł.

The best tempered glasses for the Oppo Find X9 Ultra screen

Here the selection is broader. For the Find X9 Ultra screen, glasses and films from three brands are available: Bizon, GrizzGlass, and 3mk. This allows you to choose protection according to your budget and preferences: from a cheap hybrid film for 15 zł to a full 9H glass with an application frame.

Screen Protection	Type	Hardness / Feature	Price
Bizon Glass Edge	tempered glass	9H, 4D full glue	25 zł
GrizzGlass HybridGlass	hybrid glass	+400% durability, does not crack	14.99 zł
Bizon Hybrid Shadow	privacy glass	matte, protects against peeping	35 zł

Bizon Glass Edge — full coverage and 9H hardness

Tempered glass Bizon Glass Edge for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, black frame

Tempered glass Bizon Glass Edge for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, installation on the screen

Our choice. Bizon Glass Edge is a classic tempered glass with a hardness of 9H, featuring full 4D adhesive covering the curved edges of the screen. The black frame masks the transition at the edge of the display, while the oleophobic coating reduces fingerprints.

For 25 PLN, you get the best compromise between price and resistance to breakage. If you prefer to have a spare, the same model is available in a two-pack version (Bizon Glass Edge Duo) for 35 PLN — a convenient option if the first installation attempt fails.

GrizzGlass HybridGlass — the cheapest reasonable protection

Hybrid glass GrizzGlass HybridGlass for Oppo Find X9 Ultra

Hybrid glass GrizzGlass HybridGlass for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, application

GrizzGlass HybridGlass is a hybrid glass that combines a glass layer with a flexible film. It does not crack or shatter like regular glass, and the manufacturer claims a screen reinforcement of 400% upon impact.

At 14.99 PLN, it is the cheapest reasonable screen protection in this comparison. The oleophobic coating maintains full touch sensitivity and does not interfere with the fingerprint reader under the screen. It is suitable for those who already use a case and want only basic protection against scratches.

Bizon Hybrid Shadow Privacy Glass

If you often work on your phone in a train or an open space office, it’s worth considering Bizon Hybrid Shadow, a matte privacy glass that narrows the viewing angle of the screen and makes it difficult to see from the side. For 35 PLN, it combines scratch protection with privacy and a pleasant, anti-glare finish.

Hasselblad Camera Protection — Don’t Skip This Step

The large, protruding camera module is the most vulnerable element of the Find X9 Ultra. A scratched periscope lens means blurry photos in every shot from this focal length. A dedicated camera glass costs several dozen PLN and is one of the best investments in accessories for this phone.

Camera Protection	Contents	Feature	Price
3mk Lens Protection	4 pieces	99% transparency, 9H	19 PLN
Bizon Glass Lens	2 pieces + set	color preservation	25 PLN
GrizzGlass HybridGlass Camera	1 piece	budget protection	9.99 PLN

3mk Lens Protection — best price-to-content ratio

3mk Lens Protection for Oppo Find X9 Ultra

3mk Lens Protection for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, set of 4 pieces

Our choice. 3mk Lens Protection is a set of four lens covers with a hardness of 9H, featuring an oleophobic and hydrophobic coating, and 99% transparency. Four pieces in the set mean a backup in case of a failed installation or replacement after months of use.

For 19 PLN, you protect the Hasselblad lenses from scratches without a noticeable impact on photo quality. It’s a sensible choice for anyone who places their phone camera down or carries it in their pocket with keys.

Bizon Glass Lens — with a complete mounting set

Bizon Glass Lens for Oppo Find X9 Ultra, mounting set

Bizon Glass Lens includes two covers with an oleophobic coating that maintain color fidelity and reduce glare from the flash in night photos. The set includes a microfiber cloth, a wet wipe, positioning stickers, and a dust absorber.

At 25 PLN, it’s an option for those who want a convenient, complete mounting set in a box. For the most budget-conscious, an alternative is the GrizzGlass HybridGlass Camera for 9.99 PLN.

The best wall charger for Oppo Find X9 Ultra

Find X9 Ultra charges wired with a power of 100 W SUPERVOOC and replenishes the 7,050 mAh battery in under 40 minutes, as confirmed by the official OPPO specification. However, you will achieve the full 100 W only with the original SUPERVOOC charger. A universal GaN wall charger will charge the phone quickly and safely via USB Power Delivery and PPS, although it will not reach the proprietary 100 W.

Ugreen Nexode Pro 100 W GaN — our choice

Ugreen Nexode Pro 100 W GaN charger for Oppo Find X9 Ultra

Ugreen Nexode Pro 100 W GaN wall charger with USB-C and USB-A ports

Our choice. Ugreen Nexode Pro 100 W GaN is the best match for Find X9 Ultra — on a single USB-C port, it delivers the full 100 W, so the phone charges at the maximum speed it accepts via USB Power Delivery and PPS. Three ports (2× USB-C + USB-A) and a compact GaN housing will also support a laptop or tablet.

For 219.90 zł you get a top brand of chargers and a full set of standards (PD, PPS, QC, SCP, AFC). Remember: the full 100 W SUPERVOOC can only be achieved with the original OPPO charger, but this Ugreen provides the fastest universal charging and power reserve for a laptop. Pair it with a USB-C to USB-C cable that supports high power, as a cheap cable limits the actual charging speed.

Best wireless charger for Oppo Find X9 Ultra

The Find X9 Ultra charges wirelessly with a power of up to 50 W, but only in the AIRVOOC standard with the OPPO charger. Universal wireless chargers Qi and Qi2 provide the phone with up to 15 W — conveniently for a desk or bedside table. Magnetic models hold securely with a magnetic case, as the phone does not have built-in magnets; without it, you can use them like a classic Qi stand.

Tech-Protect A51 Arcticboost 3in1 — our choice

Our choice. Tech-Protect A51 Arcticboost 3in1 (229 PLN) charges your phone, smartwatch, and headphones simultaneously, has Qi2 magnets, and active cooling with a fan. To reach full power, connect it to a power adapter of at least 45 W. If you prefer the cheapest option, check out the magnetic pad Tech-Protect A50 for 59 PLN.

Worth adding to the cart. The 7,050 mAh battery pairs perfectly with a power bank with USB Power Delivery — a compact 10,000 mAh model is a lifesaver on longer trips.

Which accessory set to choose for Oppo Find X9 Ultra?

Not everyone needs everything at once. Below are three scenarios tailored to budget and usage style.

Budget (approx. 50 PLN): Bizon Case Łupka (35 PLN) + GrizzGlass HybridGlass (14.99 PLN). Basic protection for the back and screen for less than 50 PLN.
Optimal (approx. 80 PLN): Bizon Case Łupka (35 PLN) + Bizon Glass Edge (25 PLN) + 3mk Lens Protection (19 PLN). Full protection for the phone and camera — our recommendation for most users.
Charging set (approx. 300 PLN): the above kit plus Ugreen Nexode Pro 100 W GaN (219.90 PLN). Everything you need from day one, including a fast charger.

If you want to minimize your purchases, the ready Bizon Case Clear Pack combines a case and films in one box for 55 PLN.

Summary

The Oppo Find X9 Ultra is a flagship worth around 6,000 PLN, so spending a few dozen PLN on accessories is the cheapest insurance you can buy. The key takeaways:

Case: Bizon Case Łupka (35 PLN) for everyday use, Soft Case (45 PLN) for those who prefer soft silicone.
Screen protector: Bizon Glass Edge (25 PLN) with 9H hardness as the best compromise between price and protection.
Camera: 3mk Lens Protection (19 PLN) protects the protruding Hasselblad lenses — don’t skip this step.
Charger: Ugreen Nexode Pro 100 W GaN (219.90 PLN) — a full 100 W on USB-C and power reserve for a laptop.

FAQ — frequently asked questions

What case fits the Oppo Find X9 Ultra?

The dedicated cases for Find X9 Ultra are Bizon: the hard Case Łupka (35 PLN), the silicone Soft Case (45 PLN), and the Case Clear Pack set with films (55 PLN). All have cutouts tailored to the large Hasselblad camera module and raised edges protecting the screen.

Which tempered glass should I choose for the Oppo Find X9 Ultra?

The best compromise is Bizon Glass Edge (25 PLN), a 9H tempered glass with full 4D glue. A cheaper alternative is the hybrid GrizzGlass HybridGlass (14.99 PLN), and for screen privacy, the matte privacy glass Bizon Hybrid Shadow (35 PLN) is suitable.

Should I protect the camera on the Oppo Find X9 Ultra?

Yes. The camera module protrudes significantly and touches the surface first when you set the phone down. A scratched lens worsens every photo taken from that focal point. A camera cover, like the 3mk Lens Protection (19 PLN for 4 pieces), costs a few dozen PLN and prevents costly scratches.

What charger for the Oppo Find X9 Ultra?

The phone charges with a power of 100 W SUPERVOOC using the original OPPO charger. Among universal chargers, the best option is the GaN 100 W model, like the Ugreen Nexode Pro (219.90 PLN), which charges the phone quickly and safely via USB Power Delivery and PPS, and can also power a laptop. Remember to use a USB-C cable that supports high power.

Does Oppo Find X9 Ultra support wireless charging?

Yes, the Find X9 Ultra charges wirelessly with a power of up to 50 W and supports reverse charging at 10 W. You can use a wireless charger on your desk or nightstand without removing the case, as long as the case, like the Bizon Soft Case, does not block Qi charging.

How much does the accessory set for Oppo Find X9 Ultra cost?

The basic set of a case plus glass costs around 50 PLN. Full protection with a case, screen glass, and camera cover is about 80 PLN. With a fast GaN 100 W charger, the total comes to around 300 PLN — still a fraction of the cost of repairing a cracked flagship screen.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 — revolution or evolution?

Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 is set to debut on July 22, 2026, at Galaxy Unpacked in London, alongside Galaxy Z Fold 8, Z Flip 8, and Watch Ultra 2. According to leaks, the Classic version with a rotating bezel is disappearing, the battery is increasing by about 23%, and the watch retains two sizes: 40 and 44 mm. These are leak data; Samsung has not yet confirmed them.

Summer is traditionally the time for Samsung’s watches and foldables. Revolution or evolution? Judging by the leaks, it seems more like a steady step forward rather than a upheaval, but a few changes really make a difference. Below we have gathered everything that is currently known about the new watch: the expected release date, specifications from leaks, expected price, and how it differs from Galaxy Watch 8.

When is the Galaxy Watch 9 premiere?

When will the Galaxy Watch 9 hit stores? The watch is set to be unveiled on July 22, 2026, during the Galaxy Unpacked conference. According to reports, Samsung is organizing a summer Unpacked in London, and the new model will appear on stage alongside the next generation of foldables.

A signal that the premiere is near was the passage of the device attributed to the Watch 9 series through the American FCC in mid-June 2026. Certification with the FCC is usually one of the last steps before the official debut.

Note: As of the publication date, Samsung has not yet sent out an official invitation to Unpacked nor confirmed the name “Galaxy Watch 9”. Treat the date of July 22 and the entire specification as highly probable leaks, not data confirmed by the manufacturer. Official information will appear on the Samsung newsroom.

Pre-sale usually starts on the day of the conference, and retail sales 1–2 weeks later. If the pattern repeats, you will be able to buy the watch in stores at the beginning of August 2026.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 — specifications from leaks

The new model is expected to be an evolution, not a revolution. Samsung is refining a proven design instead of turning it upside down. The table below collects the most important parameters reported by foreign technology publications.

Parameter (leak)	Galaxy Watch 9
Premiere	July 22, 2026 (Galaxy Unpacked)
Case sizes	40 mm and 44 mm
Screen	1.34″ (40 mm) / 1.47″ (44 mm), AMOLED
Battery	approx. 382 mAh (40 mm) / approx. 435 mAh (44 mm)
Processor	Exynos W1000 or Snapdragon Wear Elite
Classic version	none in this generation
System	Wear OS / One UI Watch
Connectivity	Bluetooth and LTE (more expensive version)
Colors	Cream and Graphite

It is worth remembering that some of this data comes from individual sources and may still change. The biggest doubts concern the processor — more on that below.

Processor — Exynos W1000 or Snapdragon Wear Elite?

This is the most contentious point of the entire puzzle. The leaks are divided here, and there is no single, coherent version.

Some sources claim that the watch will stick with the Exynos W1000 chip, known from the Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch 8, while the new Snapdragon Wear Elite chip in 3 nm lithography will be exclusive to the more powerful Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. Other reports suggest that it is the standard Watch 9 that will receive the new Qualcomm processor with significantly higher performance.

Tip: If you care about maximum smoothness and the latest chip, wait for the official specification on July 22. Only Samsung will determine which chip powers the new watch. Until then, treat any information about the processor as unconfirmed.

In everyday use, the difference between these chips will be felt mainly in AI functions and heavier applications. For notifications, workouts, and health measurements, either of them will suffice.

Galaxy Watch 9 Classic — the end of the bezel version

The biggest change in this generation is visible to the naked eye: Samsung is set to abandon the Classic variant with a physical, rotating bezel. This has distinguished the more expensive version of the watch for years and attracted fans of the classic look.

Many people are still searching online for the term “Galaxy Watch 9 Classic,” but according to reports to the FCC, such a model is unlikely to appear in 2026. If you care about the rotating ring, the real options remain older models or the stronger Ultra line.

Instead, the manufacturer is expected to focus on one cohesive design language: a round case, thinner bezels, and touch control via a ring around the screen instead of a physical bezel. This is a decision that simplifies the offering, but not everyone will like it.

Battery and Charging

Battery life is, alongside the processor, the second thing that interests buyers the most. Here, the leaks are optimistic.

40 mm version — a cell with a capacity of about 382 mAh, marketed as 400 mAh. Samsung is expected to advertise this as an increase of about 23% compared to the Galaxy Watch 8, whose battery in this size has 325 mAh.
44 mm version — a battery of around 435 mAh, which, with a more efficient display and system optimization, should allow for longer usage between charges.

In practice, a larger battery means a real chance for two days of operation with moderate use. For many users, it is this change, rather than the processor, that will determine the sense of switching from an older watch.

Health features and AI

In terms of health, the new watch is expected to continue what Samsung has refined over the last generations. According to leaks, all key sensors are returning:

ECG — heart rate recording measurement straight from the wrist.
Blood pressure measurement — a function available after calibration with a traditional sphygmomanometer.
Saturation (SpO2) — monitoring of blood oxygenation.
Skin temperature — used, among other things, for sleep and cycle analysis.

A new feature is expected to be a stronger emphasis on AI-supported health analysis — personalized tips regarding sleep, activity, and recovery. The watch is expected to run on Wear OS with the One UI Watch overlay, closely integrated with Galaxy phones.

Galaxy Watch 9 vs Galaxy Watch 8 — what’s changing

If you have the Galaxy Watch 8, the differences are evolutionary. The biggest gain is the battery and tidying up the offer.

Feature	Galaxy Watch 8 (2025)	Galaxy Watch 9 (leak)
Sizes	40 and 44 mm	40 and 44 mm
Battery (40 mm)	approx. 325 mAh	approx. 400 mAh (+23%)
Classic Version	✅	❌
Processor	Exynos W1000	Exynos W1000 or Wear Elite
System	One UI Watch (Wear OS)	One UI Watch (Wear OS)
Launch	July 2025	July 2026

For owners of the Watch 8, this is an upgrade “for those who want it,” not a necessity. The longer battery life is tempting, but the sensor set remains at a similar level. The upgrade makes more sense for those with the Galaxy Watch 6 or older devices, where the jump in battery life and performance will be truly noticeable.

Price and availability in Poland

Samsung has not yet announced Polish prices, but leaks indicate a reference point. In the USA, the Bluetooth version is expected to start at 349 dollars, and LTE models are expected to be 30–40 dollars more expensive. In Europe, a price of around 409 euros for the basic variant has appeared.

Translating this to our market and the price of its predecessor, in Poland the new watch should cost approximately 1,499 to 1,699 PLN for the 40 mm Bluetooth version. The 44 mm variant and LTE models will be correspondingly more expensive. This is still an estimate; the official price list will be revealed on the launch day.

What else will Samsung show at Unpacked

Unpacked on July 22 is not just about the watch. On the same day, Samsung is expected to refresh almost the entire line of wearable and foldable devices. The following information also comes from leaks.

Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 — a more powerful watch with a 47 mm titanium case, an 800 mAh battery, and a new 3 nm chip. You can find details in the text about what we know about Galaxy Watch Ultra 2.
Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Flip 8 — a new generation of foldables with larger batteries and faster charging.
Galaxy Glasses — Samsung’s first smart glasses, which have been talked about for several months.

If you are choosing between the standard Watch 9 and the Ultra 2, the key differences are battery, durability, and price. The Watch 9 is aimed at everyday wear, while the Ultra 2 is designed for extreme sports and maximum battery life.

Accessories for Galaxy Watch 9 — what to prepare

The new watch is expected to maintain case sizes of 40 and 44 mm, so straps and glasses compatible with the Galaxy Watch 8 should also work with the new generation. We will confirm final compatibility right after the launch.

If you want protection and a replacement strap ready for the first day, check out our categories. You will find accessories for current Samsung models — accessories for Galaxy Watch 8, a wide selection of watch straps, and a comprehensive category of straps, glasses, and bands for Galaxy Watch. We will add and update the new model category with products right after the official premiere.

Summary

Galaxy Watch 9 is shaping up to be a calm, thoughtful upgrade. There are no revolutions here, but there are specific changes: a larger battery, a streamlined offering without the Classic version, and two proven case sizes. The premiere is set to take place on July 22, 2026, at Galaxy Unpacked in London, along with Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the new generation of foldables.

The key takeaways (all based on leaks, without official confirmation from Samsung):

Premiere: July 22, 2026, at Galaxy Unpacked in London.
Key changes: battery increased by about 23%, end of the Classic version, two sizes 40 and 44 mm.
Price: probably starting from about 1,499 PLN for the 40 mm Bluetooth version, based on the predecessor and prices from leaks.

According to leaks, the premiere will take place on July 22, 2026, during Galaxy Unpacked in London. Samsung has not officially confirmed this date yet, but the device passing through the FCC in mid-June suggests that the debut is very close.

How much will the Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 cost?
There is no official price in Poland yet. The Bluetooth version is expected to start at around $349 (409 euros), which in our reality means approximately 1,499 to 1,699 PLN for the 40 mm model. The LTE variant and 44 mm will be more expensive.

Will there be a Galaxy Watch 9 Classic with a rotating bezel?
Probably not. According to FCC filings, Samsung is skipping the Classic version in this generation. If you want a physical, rotating ring, the realistic options are older models or the Ultra line.

What processor does the Galaxy Watch 9 have?
This is still uncertain. Some leaks point to the known Exynos W1000, while others suggest the new Snapdragon Wear Elite in 3 nm lithography. The final answer will only be known during the official premiere.

What is the difference between Galaxy Watch 9 and Watch 8?
The biggest changes are a battery that is about 23% larger and the absence of a Classic version. The case sizes (40 and 44 mm) and the set of health sensors remain similar. This is an evolution, not a revolution.

Do the bands from Galaxy Watch 8 fit Galaxy Watch 9?
Most likely yes. The new model retains the case sizes of 40 and 44 mm, so the bands and glasses for Watch 8 should also fit the new generation. We will confirm the final compatibility after the premiere.
